Loving Nature

I grew up loving to take pictures – always looking for a pretty picture in just about everything that I look at.  It could be random but there is always something waiting to be captured.

I also adore animals (well except reptiles!) and would try to con my parents into letting me have any pet possible.  (I was blessed with cats at my parents and got to play with dogs and bucket calves on grandma’s farm.)  Therefore one of my favorite things to take pictures of is animals.  They can be so expressive.  Included in this post are a collection of images I took throughout the last couple of weeks in May 2012.  Every few of years I make the trek to the Omaha Zoo to find my favorite animals and take a TON of pictures.  You’ll find that I was in awe of the aquarium (which is my favorite exhibit) especially the tunnel and the shark tank.

I am also in awe of clouds; included are some images from storm clouds building that proved to be quite destructive that weekend!

I am randomly asked, how did you get “that” picture.  It’s simple, I always have a camera with me!  Maybe this just applies to my experiences but some of my favorite images were taken in a split second window of time.  Some times you have to wait for that window to open and snap a few images or just wait for the moment to strike you!
